Priority Levels
The priority levels divide the entries pretty evenly.
Gender in Priority Levels
As priority level decreases, the ratio of males to females increases. This is expected based on the analysis after Phase 2: in Public Interest, the main role in Priority 1, women far outnumbered men; men were better represented in Government and Corporate and formed a small majority in Judiciary and Law Firm.
Roles in Priority Levels
Note that though anyone who has Public Interest role was included in Priority 1, such a person, for example, may also have a Corporate role which would also appear in the Priority 1 chart.
Note also that some exceptions were made to the priority criteria. The reasons for these are given in parentheses on the AirTable spreadsheet.
Race in Priority Levels
The racial composition of Priority Level 1 is roughly equal to the racial composition in all the entries, with Blacks making up a slightly smaller proportion compared to all entries and other minorities making up slighty more.
In Priority Levels 2 and 3, blacks form a plurality, mostly due to the fact that these levels contain the CBA Judges list.
Decade in Priority Levels
Priority Level 1 is the decade with the greatest percentage of degrees earned in the ’90s or after. Priority Level 2 has the least of these, and the highest percentage of degrees earned in the ’70s.
Note that the few degrees earned before 1950 have been excluded from all charts for easier comparison.
Degrees in Priority Levels
As intended, Priority Level 1 has the greatest diversity of degrees. One notable exception is for J.D./M.B.A, the vast majority of whom are in Priority Level 3, largely because most of them have either Corporate/Business or Law Firm roles.
